Paint Sun Guard or not ?

[BxGalant99]

i just received my sun guard today and was wondering how it would look better, painted or just black ?
my galant is silver by the way.

[SkylineG1]

What color is your car?

[BxGalant99]

silver 8G.

[krispy03]

depends on the color sceam you are going for

[cardude03]

do you have a spoiler?

i got mine painted mainly because it would match better with the painted spoiler. and i think Reelax has his painted, so u might wanna check out some of his pix. cuz he is silver.

[SkylineG1]

If you have a spoiler then yeah paint it. If not I say leave it black.

[krispy03]

If you have a spoiler then yeah paint it. If not I say leave it black.i have a spoiler and mine(egr) is still black.

[pinoyesv6]

go to the picture post. there are a buncha people here that have theirs painted. search for them and see if you like it or not.

[BxGalant99]

no spoiler but i think im gonna buy the M3 style spoiler they got for sale on e-bay.

[cardude03]

i think reelax has the lil m3 lip spoiler as well, so even more reason for you to check out his ride.

<span style='color:blue'> Hey man, a lil friendly advice... do something because you like it, not because someone else has it done. There's no better reason to do anything than to please yourself (get your mind out of the gutter). Personally, when I get my sunguards, I'm going to paint them, for me, no one else. Only because I like it that way. I also have a silver G. You don't need anyone else's pic to help you decide. If it looks good in your head, and you can go to sleep at night with the decision you made, then that's all that counts. (So what if I sound like an afterschool special. Fuck y'all haterz! lmao)
Ya feel me Bx?</span>

[BxGalant99]

i feel you, but im just tryin to get some opinions. once i paint it theres no going back so i wanna hear what others gotta say about it.
thanks for the input though.

Edit: i agree with ur sig. nyc is a bitch to drive through !!!

[krispy03]

some people value the opinion of others

god that looks awful! what an ugly POS!

[NYmagicstk]

<span style='color:blue'> I have to disagree with you reelax, That's the first rear visor that I have seen that I actually like. Usually I would have said it was ugly too, but it goes with that car. Don't get me wrong, it still (for lack of better words) weird, but it all how you rock it.
Hey pinoy, is that yours? It looks like there is blue tint on the back window... HOT!!!
I've been trying to find good dark blue tint 4ever. SHIT!</span>

hehe... thank you for the compliments. u do realize i was just being an ass since that is my car!

[NYmagicstk]

Lmao. Oh, I didn't know. Where can I find that blue tint? Tell me that ain't the pepboys special. all the tint shops around here have the Mirrorblue. I can find clear blue anywhere that is that dark. Also, where do they sell personalized gauges? I tried to find GDImports myself with no luck.

umm that tint was made for boats by a marine tint company that has since gone out of business. i can't even get it redone if i scratch it. it's about 35%-20% tint if it were in grayscale. also, GDImports is gone. one of the owners was a member here (GALANTESP) and he spearheaded the original reverse EL guage development w/ AC AUTOTECHNICS, but he sold his car and went back to taiwan to run the family business. also the personalized reverse EL guages are my own personal mod... i even did it on my S7's. a company that does do persnoalized guages tho (both regular EL and reverse EL) is http://www.speedhut.com ('http://www.speedhut.com') . they can add whatever text or graphics you want and are a very good company. my first set of EL guages (the first ever made for the USDM 8G) came from them and there are pics on my site. click on my sig if u haven't allready seen them.

have you ever though about maybe getting the regular clear blue tint, and backing it up with a darker tint? cuz i know that my friend got limo tint, and he thought it was too light, so he got another layer of limo tint put on top.

[NYmagicstk]

I never thought about that. I didn't know you could put two layers of tint on a window. That might be good. Blue with mirror under??? I'll check out pep boys. This weekend.

Shut up man, that shit is absurd. I have 5% tint on my car now and have to roll my windows down to keep from hitting curbs when I turn and/or park. Tell him to get a rattle can of solid black and call it a day

[NYmagicstk]

LMAO whom are you suggesting spray their windows, me or the other dudes friend? Can someone give me any reasons why putting Blue tint then mirror tint would be a bad idea? I'm not exactly sure how dark it's going to make my windows... I hope I can still see out of them.
Lol
